WE WANT TO SHARE STEEMIT TO 5,000 PEOPLE IN LAGOS.steemCreated with Sketch.

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

A few things are given: the more people embrace Steemit, the better value we all get. Second, Lagos is Africa's largest marketplace.

So I was thinking how to marry that. Thanks to inspiration from the team in Greece (@greek-trail) I figured this will work for the best of our community: let us get people in Lagos aware of Steemit. Let us go out to the world.

WHY LAGOS?
I already mentioned this place being Africa's megacity with a very vibrant population. This is the centre of virality, the Cox of the force named Nigeria, with a 21m woke population.

SO WHAT?
We will print 5,000 A6 flyers with catchy info about Steemit and an invite to join, have 10 Steemians collaborate to hand these out at three of the city's hottest points on a weekend.

WHERE EXACTLY ARE "HOT POINTS?"
Let's say going about Lagos earned you points, these place are the points whales:

  1. Ikeja City mall
  2. Palm Malls Lekki
  3. Maryland mall

The first two boast a combined 159 retailer stores, and these include the biggest brands around the world: Apple, Nike, Swatch, Puma, Genesis Cinemas, Silverbird,Game, Shoprite, etc; and a combined parking of 2,500 cars.

You will agree those are vibrant waters to cast our nets.

WHAT WILL THIS COST?

GRAND TOTAL: NGN111,000 ~ $350

I have already solicited the support of other Steemians who are on ground to push this with me.

WHO PAYS FOR THIS?
I solicit we do this as our signature self: as a community. An UPVOTE, a RESTEEM. That is all it'll take for real. I will update you on the spending of every cent. I am just a servant who owes the community accountability.

Please fam, let's do this! Let's rock #Lagos!
GO STEEM IT ON THE MOUNTAIN!!!

Thats great news indeed ! But it seems you have to deliver first and then community support your effort !
I would suggest you the following

  • Design first the flyer
  • Print out less pieces (depends how much you can afford from your own pocket)
  • Do the same with the t-shirts
  • Get some friends to help you or some local steemians you maybe know

Come back with a result ! You have to try first !
Wish you best of luck to your effort !

Great idea. I need to have a roundtable with my Steemian friend to see how much we can do ourselves to push this.

This is a very good piece and a great idea. good to read from you. Try to check me out and give a follow back too. Will be great to work towards achieving this.

Appreciated. I am following you now. Will go through your blog. Please be kind to resteem the post to help its visibility and support the campaign further 😊
